The IND vs CAN match on Saturday is a dead rubber.

Match number 33 of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 will be played between India and Canada. This encounter is scheduled to take place on June 15, Saturday, at the Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground, Lauderhill, Florida.

The timing of this match is 02:30 PM GMT / 10:30 AM LOCAL / 8:00 PM IST.

This match is a dead rubber, considering that India have qualified for the Super 8 round already and Canada have been eliminated from the race. From Group A, India and the USA have sealed their spots in the next round, eliminating Pakistan, Canada and Ireland.

Against Canada, India might look to test their bench strength and possibly give a couple of pacers some rest ahead of the crucial Super 8 round. However, the Men In Blue might not even get a chance to do this because the game sees a threat of being washed out.

On Friday, the USA vs Ireland match washed out without toss. That allowed the USA to take a point and enter the Super Eight stage. There was stop-and-start rain on Friday in Florida, which didn’t allow the ground staff to dry up the outfield. A similar situation is expected on Saturday.
